[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree OP.

Our social institutions have created the expectation of schools being a source of childcare Monday through Friday. To eliminate that and criticize those who perceive it as "childcare" is unfair. You cannot set expectations and then yank them out from underneath of people who are relying on them.[/quote]

You decided it was for child care and set that expectation.  However, you didn't plan for emergencies or something like this to happen as it hasn't happened in most of our lifetimes but now it has and you need to adapt and figure it out.[/quote]

I am not one of those who view school as childcare, but can empathize with those who do...

Get real. Who in the hell plans for a pandemic in their emergency preparations?

Empathy and compassion. Two things you are certainly in need of brushing up on![/quote]

We do.  We have had one bad thing happen after another for many years so yes, we plan as we know what can happen.  If you choose not to save/plan for an emergency that's on you.  [/quote]
